The Human Paradox

-----The Human Paradox-----

It is a very powerful fact that the vast majority of people in the
world today are failing to achieve their full potential, happiness,
wealth, health and desires through a complete lack of understanding
of the way in which the Universe operates in its immutable,
perfect, loving way.

When we choose to incarnate into the physical world we do so in
full knowledge of who our parents will be, what challenges in the
next physical life we will be faced with, and the determination to
realise, understand and to meet those challenges, thereby learning
vital lessons, to evolve Spiritually and to achieve total joy while
doing so. It is only in achieving these and other important
objectives can we be fully aligned with The Source, our Creator,
God.

We are all expressions of God, expressed in all spheres of
existence with Unconditional Love and natural, instinctive,
powerful desire to evolve, ultimately back to God as a perfected
aspect of God. This is indeed the absolute true meaning of all life
of which we are all inseparable aspects. We are all, each and every
one of us immortal, Spiritual, Divine Beings joyfully journeying
along the path back to God Who first gave us the precious gift of
Life.

Over the years however mankind has steadily, and increasingly
turned its back away from The Source, our Creator, God, and towards
an alternative existence involving gross materialism, dogma and
indoctrination, thereby becoming the slave of mammon. Most people
are influenced by such erroneous factors such as what is expected
of them by those around them, what other people think in the game
of conforming to society and the "way things are done", and above
all by the trappings of material desire, vanity and of the
individual ego.

It is only when an individual realises these truths and has the
courage, strength and determination, all of which will be fully
supported by the Universe, to face up to them can that individual
become truly free to fulfil his or her destiny with total joy,
meaning and purpose, and to attract anything and everything that
they can possibly desire into their lives.

In order to achieve this state of awareness it is necessary to
consciously become an open channel through which the Universe, The
Source, God can express in the physical world. This means always
being totally open to the Universe and acting accordingly in the
same direction. Most people today unfortunately do exactly the
opposite by always endeavouring to conform and live up to the
expectations of others, the pursuit of material gain, and forcing
things in a perceived direction by physical means. Instead of being
an open channel, a source of expression of God and of their
Higher-Self, they simply think about everything too much with a
desire to physically "do" things in an attempt to force things the
way they want them to go, which very often is totally contrary to
the flow of the Universe. Quite simply they have failed to "let go
and let God" and as a direct result people suffer, fail to reach
their full joyous potential and fail to evolve, thereby ensuring
yet another incarnation on Earth in order to return once again in
order to fulfil everything that was failed to be fulfilled in the
previous lifetime.

The vast majority of people incarnate on Earth today are within
this cycle of birth, Earth life and transition back to the Astral
worlds to review what has or has not been achieved before returning
to Earth again in order to correct the counter-productive actions
of the previous life, and of course to hopefully make progress
towards the ultimate objective on the path back to The Source, The
First Cause, God.

Of course at the same time every single human without exception has
to go through an evolutionary phase, often including hundreds of
lives on Earth over the course of many thousands of years. This is
a natural and necessary aspect of individual evolution. Without
many cycles of Earth life experience it will not be easily possible
to acquire the necessary level of Spiritual evolution and Energy
vibration to continue along the path back to God. However, this
cycle of the Earth human race has been and is being protracted by
many factors, including gross materialism, creed and dogma and the
"human paradox".

Unfortunately, even in the 21st century, society is still
operating a system that has been in operation for centuries,
thereby trapping people from a very young age in a cycle that
prevents happiness, fulfilment and evolution. From the first day a
child is born into what should be a glorious, joyful and fulfilling
existence they are indoctrinated into the trappings of the material
world. A child is taught to focus on the five physical senses, to
behave in a certain way that precludes maintaining their still
strong connections with the inner worlds from where they so
recently arrived, and they are taught to treasure material things
including toys representing what their parents hope they will
materially become later in Earth life.

Later children are told by parents, relatives and teachers that
they must go to school in order to get the qualifications required
in order to get a "job" so that they may work for the next 40 years
before retiring on a pension, but only after the physical body,
Mind and Spirit has often been traumatised to a high degree, and
where they can live the remainder of their lives in the hope of
surviving in a non-caring world for the most part.

From the moment of birth the Mind of most children is shaped by
parents based upon their own perception of what life "is all
about", and usually based upon their own current circumstances in
terms of type of job, type of street and house to live in and many
other factors, all based upon the situation and aspirations of
parents, relatives and others. Many children are taught that it is
wrong to aspire to a life that is outside of their "station in
life" and they should focus on the lifestyle that their parents
have always accepted.

The Mind of a child at both conscious and subconscious levels is
very impressionable, and it does not take many years of having the
ideals of parents repeatedly conveyed for them for the subconscious
of the child to accept it as reality, and from that point onwards
it will become the reality of the child just as it was for the
parents.

Finally, often sooner rather than later, old-age and failing health
finally takes its toll and the welcome release back to the
non-physical worlds once again takes place. Once the transition to
the Astral worlds has taken place during the process known
erroneously as "death", the Soul will have every opportunity to
reflect on what might have been for that most recent Earth life,
what was not accomplished and why, thereby eventually resolving to
return once again to Earth in order to achieve those same
objectives the next time around.

The Soul will then know that for their entire stay on Earth, rather
than conforming to the hopes, aspirations and expectations of
others based upon their own reality, they, as powerful Spiritual
beings with freewill could have created any reality at all
consistent with the lessons to be learned on Earth during physical
life, and that there is really nothing at all they cannot be, do or
have.

Humanity is currently stuck in this paradox, a cycle of often what
amounts to misery due to creating a reality that is not consistent
with the true mission of the Soul, and it is not until this cycle
is broken that everyone can find true joy, fulfilment and
happiness, and above all true evolution along the path back to God,
to Whom we all have the ultimate duty to return as perfected human
beings made in the true Spiritual image of our Divine creator.

The current system of education and society originated three
hundred or more years ago. It might well have worked back then but
with society still enforcing these principles, supported by creed
dogma and the indoctrination of parents, teachers and society
generally, mankind has actually failed to progress as the Universe
intends; people have failed to evolve with the joy and fulfilment
of Spirit.

Children are told to go to school, study certain subjects, achieve
certain qualifications, get a certain job, and then work in a
certain office, factory or other place of work in order to earn the
basic money required for material things in order to satisfy the
material and personal demands of the ego. The pressure to conform
and go through this routine is usually so strong that most people
quite simply cannot resist it, even if they knew the alternatives,
the real reason they are here.

People might say that money is necessary even to acquire the basics
of survival such as food, clothing and shelter. Yes of course this
is true, but the fact is we are here to attract and enjoy unlimited
wealth if desired, and not simply the very basics for survival in
the Earth life system. There is a very big difference however
between "wealth" and "money" and it is this distinction that has
led so many people astray, continues to do so today, and will
continue to do so until the Consciousness of mankind begins to
understand and live by these realities and, most importantly each
individual live their life accordingly.

The Universe has unlimited wealth, riches and abundance just
waiting to be delivered to each and every person. Ask and you shall
receive, every time, there are no exceptions to this. The Universe
does not recognise favouritism, luck, chance or any other such very
human notions often used as an excuse by people to blame their own
lack of progress on "other" factors that are perceived to be
outside of themselves, when in fact they are always an inseparable
aspect of such a person.

Many people however simply do not know how to ask or to receive,
and they therefore fail to achieve abundance, joy and happiness,
instead becoming a slave to society, family and above all to
themselves.

The vast majority of people in the world today are not taught how
to attract unlimited wealth, but rather how to "make money". It is
in the making of money that so much misery has been wrought upon
all of mankind, with the gross materialism driven on by the ego and
self-interest resulting in the misery we see today, being the
direct result of this desire to "make" ever more money for the
benefit of vanity, the ego and business profits, and to conform to
the demands and expectations of family, friends and others.

Very few people achieve true "money" freedom, and even those that
do are very often not at all happy, fulfilled or joyous about their
situation simply because they felt compelled to "make" their money
at a very physical level, often attracting much misery in the
process, both to themselves and to others. "Making money" is not
the same as "attracting wealth", abundance and the resultant true
emotional freedom, joy and fulfilment.

Only those who can fully understand how the Universe, The Source,
God channels abundance through His/Her expressions within the
physical world, through mankind, through each and every person, can
and will achieve as much abundance as they can possibly desire, and
most importantly with the true joy, happiness and emotional freedom
that goes with it.

This means throwing off the shackles of society, the creed, dogma
and indoctrination and the opinions and expectations of others in
order to become a true channel for abundance. Those who can do this
will answer those who may be critical by virtue of an extremely
joyous, happy, fulfilling life on Earth, and one in which all
desires are realised at will.

It has often been noted that those who physically seem to "work"
the hardest all of their lives seem to have the least money,
possessions and true happiness, whereas those who seem to "work"
the least often seem to enjoy unlimited abundance, joy and true
freedom. Many people will view such happy, joyous and fulfilled
people with envy, often accusing them of achieving their riches
through some sort of illicit means, or they might accuse them of
being "lucky", "fortunate", or "in the right place at the right
time" or of some other erroneous factor. The fact is these are mere
excuses to the people making these observations, a way of
justifying to themselves that it can never happen to them.

It is a very sad but true fact that many people still prefer to
make use of their time in seeking to find fault with others rather
than to celebrate their success and to be truly joyful that a
fellow brother or sister human being has discovered true joy,
happiness and fulfilment.

Unfortunately today many people instead look towards failure and
revel in the failure of others, a really terrible indictment on
humanity generally. The simple and powerful truth is that those who
have achieved such levels of true fulfilment have done so by
casting off the shackles of society and have become open channels
by which God can express fully in the physical world, thereby being
blessed with unlimited abundance, joy and happiness.

So the question is, how can anyone escape from the chains of modern
society to which they are currently bound in order to realise their
true potential? These questions and others will be fully dealt with
in the next chapters of this book. Suffice it to say that every
single person on the planet has the ability to attract unlimited
abundance, all they have to do is understand that fact and have
complete faith and gratitude while taking all of the necessary
actions for what can seem like an extremely rapid, joyous and very
real transition.

One of the most powerful and truest expressions of all is quite
simply Let go and let God. In China a philosopher known as
Lao-tsu said the following.

"In the practice of the Way every day something is dropped. Less
and less do you need to force things until you finally arrive at
non-action. When nothing is done nothing is left undone".

These are very powerful words indeed, and once they are fully
grasped will place you in a much better position to start
attracting the abundance, joy and fulfilment that you truly desire.
The fact is, mankind is currently so focused in the material world
that he is always "forcing" things by endeavouring to "do" things
all the time. If a person desires something they automatically
believe that a physical action is required in order to achieve it,
thereby "forcing" things in their direction. Such force might well
bring about the intended result, but nevertheless Universal laws
are immutable, and the force of that cause will always have a
corresponding effect; there are never any exceptions to this.

Whatever the person was forcing is not actually a "physical thing"
it is in reality Energy, the very same Energy from which all things
are made, and in forcing that Energy in a certain direction, a
direction that might not have been the natural direction of that
Energy, then a disharmony has occurred which the Universe will
always balance. The entire Universe is Energy, vibration and Mind,
and Energy is therefore guided by the Mind, not by the physical
effort of "doing".

Many people in the world today operate with the belief that the
only way to achieve anything is to take a physical action, often
motivated by greed, fear, uncertainty and other negative,
irrational and primitive human emotions. It is this desire to
physically "do" something in order to force a perceived objective
that often brings about the opposite effect. It is simply not
possible to "do" anything against the flow of the perfection of the
Universe and the immutable Laws in constant operation that are
responsible for the perfect order of the Universe. People are
therefore focused on "doing" instead of simply "Being". In order
to achieve anything it is first necessary to "be" rather then to
"do". It is therefore always the "being" that precedes the "doing",
there is not and cannot be any other way.

This is of course not to say that we should never "do" things.
Quite the contrary in fact; action is often necessary, but the
action must always be aligned completely with the flow of the
Universe; you first must "be" and then you can "do". It is by being
an open channel, always receptive to intuition, inspiration
messages from inner sources that the necessary Energy arrives
requiring an action that is in total alignment with that Energy.
